Chronic Crisis: Critical Care for America's Collapsing Healthcare System

Autor Selvoy M. Fillerup
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 aug 2007
The United States healthcare system leaks lives and dollars like a sieve. It neglects the needy and the poor. It is immoral. It is expensive. It is inefficient. It is, quite simply, broken.Dr. Selvoy Fillerup is an expert on international healthcare policy. As such, he has a uniquely informed perspective on why healthcare systems of other countries work, and why the US healthcare system does not. Chronic Crisis is straightforward, accessible, and direct to the point about one of the hottest political topics of our time. Explicitly nonpartisan, Dr. Fillerup offers a fresh look and reasonable solutions for this growing domestic crisis. Concerned Americans cannot afford to neglect this book! "Practical, sensitive, sensible, attainable - and most critical to all citizens if we are ever to avoid a total meltdown of our healthcare systems in the United States." -Senator Alan K Simpson, Retired (WY) "This book has something new. These ideas deserve airing and attention." -John McDonough, PhD, Healthcare for All

Chronic Crisis is straightforward, accessible, and directly to the point about the real issues affecting the United States healthcare market. Anyone who has previously shied away from the healthcare discussion, or been intimidated by the seemingly bottomless well of data from which pundits draw their arguments, will find here a fresh look at all sides of this discussion.Fillerup provides easy explanations of industry-specific terms, a review of several nations' successful healthcare delivery systems, and a brief gaze at the hole into which the United States health insurance industry is presently sliding.Here is a keep-it-simple perspective regarding reform, and a long and cheerful list of the secondary economic and social benefits that accompany any truly sustainable universal healthcare system.This is presented in a very readable, all-the-cards-are-on-the-table style.
